(I didn't see fully the 1st match)
the edge ball recovery !!!!
the first match was very good on your side, I especially liked the match point !!! very nice way to end a match
regarding the 2nd match, I watched much more of it, as it was more entertaining.
of course that guy was much stronger than the first opponent.
I think in the first 3 sets, he was still a bit afraid of you, and your serves, he was not fully committed and returned not very actively with his BH side. You were attacking quite well, your BH opening was strong and you were always able to attack successfully with your FH after that. His attacks are very strong and spinny, he's moving very well, but still he's making some mistakes and giving away some points which enabled you to lead 2-1. He caused you problems looking for your elbow and playing deep.
There was a very nice recovery from you in the 2nd (or 3rd ?) from 4-8
In the 4th set, you seem suddenly tired and lose your rhythm, maybe mentally you were tired as well, he's quickly ahead and its a bit of a disaster. In the 5th he's got the momentum, and he's receiving much better. You're doing 4 times a short underspin serve, but its not short enough, and not enough spin, he's attacking strongly those 4 serves. I think in this last set if you switched to your BH serve just after he made this first FH receive attack it could have changed things quite a bit.
Also in the last set, at 22'30, you try to smash/hit flat a (low) ball, it ends in the net. Its very high risk, you are rushing too much. you have to commit and be very early and low on your feet to be consistent with those. Its much safer to drive/loop these balls. You make this mistake quite a few times in the match.
Else, well it was a 5 set match, you could have beaten him even if he's good, and will probably get even better, he still had some weaknesses such as a relative lack of consistency and sometimes him being a bit too passive without much reason. If in the 4th set you had a better start, maybe he would have been nervous and victory would have been yours
I also thought your long push receive against short receives were excellent throughout the whole match. You had more problems receiving long serves to your FH. Your serves seemed to work well up to the 3rd set where he changed a bit his mindset but you didn't adapt to that. Also, but its not new to you, your BH was very good, your FH was powerful but not as consistent as your BH side because of your legs.
Lastly you had sometimes problems with your (mainly FH) block that i hadn't noticed before. maybe thats why you often wanted to counterloop but thats quite a bit too risky ?
